New Mastodon: “Black Tongue”

Atlanta underground metal overlords Mastodon now have a release date for their new album The Hunter: September 27, via Reprise (Roadrunner will handle release duties outside of North America).
Right now, you can pre-order The Hunter “Limited Edition Package” over at the band’s site; the whole shebang includes a CD/DVD package with an alternate cover, a 20″ x 30″ Lenticular Poster featuring that balls-tripping album cover you can see below (at the end of the video), an “Augmented Reality Experience” by Total Immersion (which, apparently, will be explained in due time), and an instant download of album cut “Black Tongue”, and a download of first official single “Curl of the Burl” at a later date.
Watch artist A.J. Fosik creating the album’s cover art piece in the video below, soundtracked by the new song “Black Tongue”:
